Description

Stochastic models have been proven successful in describing response of systems characterized by intermittent plasticity. We use similar type of models to identify possible mechanisms for RF breakdown. Specifically we explore the option that breakdown is initiated due to a correlated dislocation avalanche, caused by stresses in the sample.
